OSINT IntelTechniques FUBAR!

The IntelTechniques search engines (Bing and Google) do not bring up the associated lab results, regardless of how you enter the search. How are we supposed to follow the lesson plan if the lab does not correspond with the search results.

Hey there - any lab that relies on third-party search engine results involves the risk that those results will change over time, especially if we’re creating a fake website that exists solely for the purpose of the lab.

In this case, we noticed that Google and Bing had stopped consistently returning the intended result last year. There is a note in the lab guide that says that if the sitemap does not appear in the results, you can link to it directly at https://rekt.systems/sitemap.xml. The intention is to still show how to perform a targeted search for the sitemap, but then provide access the sitemap directly so you can continue the lab.
